ROTFL!!!
Not on your keyboard I hope.
in a couple earlier shots of it others were running away and she was the only one running toward the wave.
In the first of the 3 you couldn't see the family.
I read that all survived because they were strong swimmers and within an hour they had been reunited.
Actually Jeff Head has the follow up pic and you're not quite sure if some of the bodies are intact :( It's pretty sad. I can imagine christmas is going to be real interesting for survivors next year.
I'm just glad they're alive considering! Talk about nine lives.
The MOD squad! LOL!~
See reply #67
Yowser!
I think this is a Zen koan. Or maybe an excuse to warm up the Ouija board.
LOL
That's a bunch of Japanese. I've seen a lot of Tsumani photos and that does not appear to be one. Nobody would be smiling like that.
CALGARY FLAME-OUT
That's quite a tsunami photo the Calgary Herald has there on today's front page. Problem is, it turns out it's not from this tsunami.VisualEditors.com guru Robb Montgomery posted the page this afternoon and wondered if the photo was real. Many had suspicions, because it hadn't moved on the wires and it looked a bit like it might have been Photoshopped. But Nicole Bogdas of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel enlisted a photo editor and actually did a little legwork:
Here's the story: This is a two-year-old Reuters photo of a tsunami in China. You might remember the event: a bunch of people went to watch the waves and it turned out to be bigger than they thought. Anyway, the doctor gave the photo to the mayor of Calgary--he'd saved it for fundraising purposes. The Mayor showed it during a presentation on tsunami aid and the herald asked if they could have it thinking it was from this tsunami. Apparently their director of photography wasn't on last night.
Ouch.
LOL! Yes....a good thread for the pancake bunny.
I would like to see the image and read the story as well. Can you give some kind of reference as to the source of what prompted your commentary?
Otherwise, seeing that the Mod is on the case, I'm afraid that you're about to get the ZOT!
Don't get the ZOT! You won't like the ZOT!
